I just installed it last night.... if you did a standard install you should be able to open a console and type "wolfspdemo" (probably located in /usr/local/bin).
As far as I know this should work... although I did it the really safe way by creating a directory as root and giving my normal user the permissions for the directoty. I then installed as a normal user the files in /usr/local/games/wolfenstein-spdemo/ , and the link path to my home directory. This shouldn't all be neccesary, and I should think that installing as root should pose no problems.
